Trickle-down economics — It’s easy to say tax cuts lead to jobs and then offer no proof. It’s easy to say those at the top of the economic ladder are the job creators and then award them with tax cuts. But when do we analyze the data?

Mitt Romney used the term “trickle-down government” at least two times that I recall during Wednesday night’s first presidential debate. I know what trickle-down economics is, but what is trickle-down government?

Let’s face it, Republicans are much better at messaging. They’ve had decades of practice in what to say and how to say it to get their message across. To be certain it’s all style and no substance, but Republicans are really good at it. Republicans have a way of framing a solution to a (real or imagined) problem so that the public hears it and believes that it is a common sense approach to an apparently serious problem. But Republicans count on the thought process ending right there. If people do a little more research and consideration of all the facts, a lot of Republican “ideas” start to break down. I’ll give you two examples.

President Obama revealed his tax plan on Monday. It looks a lot like the tax plan he supported as candidate in 2008 and in the first 3+ years of his presidency. Obama wants to extend the “Bush tax cuts” for the middle class while letting the tax cuts for those making over $250,000 expire at the end of this year. Republicans respond with their usual nonsense. They say we can’t raise taxes on the “job creators” in a bad economy. I call this the first deception by Republicans when it comes to taxes. They count on ignorance to advance their agenda. Republicans hope Americans believe that jobs are created by giving tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires. Nevermind that fact that the Bush tax cuts have been in place for over a decade and we have nothing to show for it.

Here’s a story that completely contradicts Republican anti-tax gospel. The tax rate paid by Americans to the federal government in 2009 was at a 30-year-low. I thought Obama raised taxes? I thought lower taxes = job growth. Where are the jobs Republicans? Why is the economy not doing better with the tax rate at a 30-year low?

It’s remarkable that Republicans keep telling the lie that is trickle-down, supply-side economics and people continue to believe it.
